\begin{abstract}
Power spectral densities and time lags of 19 wavelength bands are recovered as part of a reverberation mapping of NGC 5548. The latest time-variable light curves are made available in STORM III by \cite{2016ApJ...821...56F}. The uneven sampling of the data in those curves necessitates the use of a maximum likelihood method in conjunction with Fourier transformations to produce the frequency-dependent values of interest. This is the first time frequency-resolved time lags have been measured from UV/optical light curves in AGN. Variability in the emission is confirmed in the power spectral densities, and the time lags show a complex frequency dependence. The total power seen in each PSD decreases with wavelength, and the average time lag increases with wavelength, both in support of thermal reprocessing by an accretion disk. There are computational issues yet to be resolved regarding accurate error estimates, so errors presented here can only be considered a lower limit. The transfer function should be recoverable once those and any additional computational issues are resolved.
